fixed bug in Item_func_div::val_int() that broke all functions that
do val_int() on their arguments before starting the computation. Similar fixes are need for +-* and probably several other but I want to make sure Monty is fine with my fix approach before changing a lot of code. Amazingly, this bug is not as critical as you would expect since very few functions do val_int() on their arguments ( from_unixtime(), sec_to_time()), and those not very frequently perform a computation on their floating point arguments. which is probably why no one has yet reported this bug. Another possibility is that the result is usually wrong by no more than 5%, which makes it hard to catch it. I found it when trying to compute mile splits for 30:47 10K - it told me 5:07, and I knew it was wrong because 5:00 mile gives you 31:08. However, if I had not run as many 10K races, I would have easily believed that 30:47 10K is a 5:07 mile pace and would not have noticed the bug. mysql-test/r/func_time.result: another test for sec_to_time that exposes a long outstanding bug mysql-test/t/func_time.test: another test for sec_to_time that exposes a long outstanding bug sql/item_func.cc: fixed bug in Item_func_div::val_int()
